Subject: [Shop-talk] software
Had to buy a new laptop. For years I've been using an office products suite license that I bought years ago. As each old laptop dies, I get another used one, move the license, etc etc.
This Win10 machine won't run this old software. No surprise there.
Sooooooo.....I need Word and Excel for my side hustle. I am not against buying stand alones if I have to but if I am seeing this correctly, they are now only "annual licenses" that would have to be renewed each year. What a crock...er, I mean racket.
I looked at open source but there are so many that I quickly got confused.
One thing that is a must have is creating an invoice in Word then saving it as a pdf for sending to our customers. If none of the open source stuff has this feature, then I'd be forced to go with Word.
Shop content: I am selling buying and selling parts that are stored in my garage shop and my basement shop.
Thanks all
tim
